"Making A Difference With Music"

"NEW PROJECT" by our sister company The Music Project Company

The Music Club ~ An Open Mic

We are passionate about creating opportunities for music to happen. Open Mics are a wonderful opportunity for new & seasoned music folk to showcase their talents, network with other musicians and create some pretty spectacular jams.

These open mics are also a show all in themselves! If you are a lover of live music, the Musician Club shows are intimate opportunities where you can be sure there will be entertainment that is fresh, unique and a ton of fun. Imagine hanging out with some of CT 's (and traveling through) best and up & coming performers who come out to share their talent and ask for your opinions of new material. You just might become part of CT music history in the making

The West Haven Veterans Administration (VA) Hospital campus will soon (spring, 2015) be the site of a new Fisher House which will serve as a “home away from home” for families of hospitalized veterans as they receive medical care. Connecticut’s new Fisher House will join 57 other such facilities that are committed to providing much needed support to our veterans.

The work of the Fisher House Project will, in turn, be supported by Soldiers’ Angels who provide aid and comfort to the men and women of the United States Army, Marines, Navy, Air Force, and Coast Guard, and their families. Founded in 2003, by the mother of two American soldiers, hundreds of thousands of Soldiers' Angels volunteers assist veterans, wounded and deployed personnel and their families in a variety of unique and effective ways. The Soldier Angels slogan, “May No Soldier Go Unloved," drives these dedicated volunteers to work tirelessly to provide active care and concern for our service men and women and their loved ones.
